@Ponderable saidThank you SO much Mr. Trump.
The Defense Meteorological Satellite Program will cease to provide data to the interested public.
The satellites won't be decomissioned, they just won't be read out, due to cost cutting in meterology...
I refuse to call him 'president' Trump.
AI chat referenced other satellite programs maintaining their upload at the NPOESS and NOAA.
I would add NASA's Orbiting Carbon Observatory missions, OCO-2 and OCO-3, are doing a service too
The nature of anthropogenic C02 is a mess although the rate decreases with higher temperatures. Also industrialization is causing for a negative growth, energy-adverse environment .
@Of-Ants-and-Imps saidNow we find higher temperatures are killing whales. One of the most magnificent creatures on Earth.

@sonhouse saidIf bees go, we go. Not because we like honey, but because bees are primary pollinators. Many plants depend on them, and many other animals depend on those plants.

But Mr. 'Drill, baby, drill!' is too stupid to know that, or care if he does know.
@Ponderable saidCost cutting, so we don't know how bad climate change is getting. 'Drill, baby, drill!' and if we stop publishing the data, maybe it won't look so bad after all. This is what Trump said when the COVID pandemic was getting started: the test results were making him look bad, so he said clinics should stop testing.

“The fundamental difference between the liberal and the illiberal outlook is that the former regards all questions as open to discussion and all opinions as open to a greater or less measure of doubt, while the latter holds in advance that certain opinions are absolutely unquestionable, and that no argument against them must be allowed to be heard. What is curious about this position is the belief that if impartial investigation were permitted it would lead men to the wrong conclusion, and that ignorance is, therefore, the only safeguard against error. This point of view cannot be accepted by any man who wishes reason rather than prejudice to govern human action.”
@moonbus saidI guess when the next mile wide asteroid hits it will be better we WON'T know, eh.
